| - With Prince-Arthur street looking sadder and sadder by the day, I do hope Negasake will stick around. If you like soups/stews, then this is the place for you. Not all of them spicy too, so there's something to cater for everyone's taste.
I had the spicy tofu and beef stew, served with rice, and it was excellent. The sweetness of the beef was a nice complement to the spiciness of the soup. On the other hand, I wasn't impressed with their shrimp tempura. The batter was too thick and not the typical tempura batter.
My stew portion was large (so very good value for money) and when I looked around the table, everybody else's food came in L too and only one person in the end could finish his (the guy's a big eater).
Ambiance was very lovely and while it's always nice to have companions, I can see myself coming here by myself. The tables are small enough, but can be moved around for groups. The floor to ceiling glass windows make for excellent people watching too. Seating comfort, however, was questionable. Most of the seats are backless stools, which are fine, but the problem is that they are too high for the tables so you end up with a crooked back. Hopefully they can somehow correct this.
